Chapter 790 E-character scroll Yonglong's eighth year Chunwei Dabi

   Feng Ziying breathed a sigh of relief after finishing writing the reply letter to herself in the study.

  Jianzhou Jurchen behaved very quietly, which made my father feel a little uncertain. Two letters have come to inquire about the situation.

   On the one hand, it is to ask if there is any new development on the court side.

  Although the father also had his own information channels in the court, as Wang Wenyan intervened and began to weave Feng Ziying's own contacts and intelligence system, the gap began to appear.

Feng Tang finally realized how obvious the shortcomings of the lack of a person in charge of this area in the imperial court were. At this time, the intelligence system built purely on the correspondence between colleagues, colleagues and superiors, as well as imperial court reports How thin and pale.

Compared with the integrated intelligence system headed by Wang Wenyan, although it is still very immature and rough, especially for Feng Ziying, the value and significance of a lot of intelligence in the South has not yet been revealed, and at the same time, the resources in the North are very scattered. Even if you have the ability, it is impossible to achieve the desired effect all at once, it will take time to settle down slowly.

Those left behind in the capital, such as the Yehe tribe, have established a fixed relationship with the people under Wang Wenyan's subordinates. The East China Sea Jurchen intelligence information can be slowly transmitted back.

Similarly, by Wang Chaozuo's side in Linqing, Feng Ziying also asked Wang Wenyan to arrange a regular staff to regularly receive news about the White Lotus Sect from Wang Chaozuo, and communicate with him about the activities of the White Lotus Sect in Beizhili. get in touch.

Another example is some network resources in Datong and Yulin. Feng Ziying also began to get some resources from her father and gave them to Wang Wenyan, and they can be integrated slowly. Of course, there is still a process, and it will not be because Feng Tang handed over With Feng Ziying, the two sides can quickly establish a relationship of familiarity and trust, which needs to be gradually deepened in the process of mutual cooperation and mutual benefit.

  Papa mentioned in his letter that the Jianzhou Jurchens suspended their large-scale attacks on the Ula tribe, but the harassment and aggression of small groups suddenly increased, which caused great harm to the Ula tribe.

At the same time, Nurhachi restricted and squeezed Shuerhaqi, making it difficult for Shuerhaqi to quickly expand his strength. Many small tribes of Donghai Jurchen who had just joined Shuerhaqi were attacked by Nurhachi. Many small tribes in the Oji tribe of Jurchens in the East China Sea no longer dared to approach Shuerhaqi.

  Nurhachi was able to lead the Jianzhou Jurchens to rise rapidly, and indeed he still has some skills. He quickly came up with the strategic countermeasures designated for his own side, and quickly implemented them, which also played an effect.

From the Horqin people, according to the news from the Yehe tribe, Nurhachi’s envoys continued to enter the Horqin tribes, and gave gifts wantonly, and the marriage momentum was stronger. This also made Feng Ziying a little worried about whether the Chahar people could control Horqin and avoid Horqin People turned to Jianzhou Jurchen.

In history, Lin Dan Khan was a character with great ambition and talent. Before, he was so arrogant that he wanted to fight ten of them. As a result, he was beaten by the Jianzhou Jurchen and forced to flee westward. Now, although he has the support of Da Zhou to deter the Horqin people , but the Horqin people are much more realistic, and may not really submit to the Chahar people of the so-called golden family.

Feng Ziying also put forward her own suggestions in the letter to her father, resolutely prevent the Horqin people from getting closer to the Jianzhou Jurchen, make every effort to destroy the marriage of the Jianzhou Jurchen Horqin people, continue to strengthen the strength of the Yehe tribe, and make it become a blockade. A solid barrier linking the Horqin people and the Jianzhou Jurchens.

  In addition, the Chahar people still have to urge them to suppress the Horqin people from both the imperial court and the Liaodong Governor's Office, in order to cut off the momentum of the Jianzhou Jurchen's outreach as much as possible.

Feng Ziying also mentioned that he will push Denglai to set up an exploratory fleet to bypass North Korea as soon as possible, explore the establishment of a connection with the East China Sea Jurchen through the Whale Sea, and try his best to promote the East China Sea Jurchen to directly accept the canonization of the Great Zhou, so as to realize the bottom line and let the East China Sea Jurchen The ministries are not used by Jianzhou Jurchen.

   All of this depends on the court's support for Liaodong.

   When Feng Tang took office in the first half of the year, he received strong support from the imperial court, but can this support continue? Feng Ziying wasn't sure.

Although the strategy of opening the sea has indeed brought about a huge improvement in the wealth and income of the imperial court, this improvement is largely one-time, and the long-term fixed annual income does not account for a large proportion, and it will take many years of cultivation. Such as the royalties and the sea tax collected by the Shipbuilding Department can really grow.

In Feng Ziying's view, in the final analysis, in order to achieve a sustained and stable growth in Dazhou's wealth and income, the only way is to vigorously promote the development of industry and commerce and maritime trade, especially the development of several major industries that play a major role in supporting the national economy and people's livelihood. For example, coal and iron composite industries, such as silk and cotton textiles, tea and porcelain, which can drive huge sea trade exports.

Feng Ziying is very clear that Da Zhou is still a purely feudal agricultural country. Agriculture, that is, the stability of grain production directly determines the safety of the Da Zhou Dynasty. Agriculture, that is, whether there is a good harvest of food can be solved. This also requires the court to have sufficient tax revenue and a strong army to defend it.

  In the final analysis, it is still necessary to talk about whether the imperial court is rich or not.

   "Master, Master Xu, Master Fu, and Master Song are here."

  Feng Ziying laughed, coming this early in the morning, she must have invited herself to Hongbinlou to wait for the list.

The former Qingtan Academy won a big victory in Hongbin Building. Now Qingtan Academy has regarded Hongbin Building as a treasure of geomantic omen, so it has booked Hongbin Building long ago. All Qingtan Academy participants who participated in the Spring Competition The students all live in the Hongbin Building, and now everyone is sitting in the Hongbin Building and waiting for the announcement.

"Please wait a moment." Feng Ziying went back to the east first, and saw Shen Zizheng talking with Shen Yixiu, so she asked with a smile: "It seems that Jun Yong has a plan, and Hu Chen, Yu Xuan, and Zhong Lun are here to invite you." I'm going to Hongbin Building to wait for help, Junyong wants to go with me?"

  Shen Yixiu saw her husband coming in, and got up quickly, "My husband, Jun Yong said that he won't go with you. He also made an appointment with a few classmates to read the rankings together, and there might be Master Yang and Master Hou..."

   "Oh? Junyong wants to read the list with Wen Ruo and Ruogu?" Feng Ziying smiled.

"Well, it was agreed a long time ago that Wen Ruo and Ruogu are waiting for us in the Zhuangyuan Building." Shen Zizheng is quite complacent, and he feels very good about this exam, especially with Feng Ziying's targeted help in formulating questions and guiding his analysis Discussion, so it is extremely beneficial in Chunwei.

"That's all right, Junyong, you go first." Feng Ziying didn't force it, she wanted to share these things with her best friends. Compared with Hou Xun, Hou Ke and other close friends who have been classmates for many years.

Seeing Shen Zizheng going out high-spirited, Shen Yixiu came to Feng Ziying's side, with a worried expression on his face, "Sir, Junyong should be fine this time, right? I'm worried that if I don't win, I'm afraid that Junyong will be hit too hard and will be devastated. He I am full of confidence in this Chunwei Grand Competition, and I am afraid that if I fail to be Chinese, then..."

"No, Junyong's level of classics is much better than mine. I have also guided him a lot in the past two months in terms of current policy, and I have basically discussed with him the scope of major topics he came back to talk about. However, as long as it plays normally, I think there is great hope for the top two." Feng Ziying comforted his wife.

"That's good. I hope Junyong can pass the test in one fell swoop. Even if he is the last name in the top three, I am satisfied." There are too many uncertain factors. Although my younger brother is smart, he can't compete with his husband and Yang Sichang. Compared with talents, Shen Yixiu is still clear about this.

"Don't worry, why don't you make a bet for my husband and Wanjun. If Junyong wins the second-class Jinshi, Wanjun will allow me to be absurd. If Junyong wins the third-class Jinshi, Wanjun will..." Feng Ziying hadn't finished speaking. , was interrupted by Shen Yixiu with a blushing face, "If Junyong passed the second-class Jinshi exam, I will go to my mother-in-law and tell my mother-in-law that I will take another concubine for my husband. If Junyong passed the third-class Jinshi exam, my husband can take another concubine , if Junyong doesn't pass the exam, what will Mr. Xiang say?"

  Feng Ziying was dumbfounded, and it took a long time before she said: "Mr. Wan, I don't have the idea of ​​taking concubines as a husband. I am already very satisfied as a husband with Second Sister You and Third Sister You,..."

"The concubine didn't say anything about the present, but the concubine understands Xianggong's thoughts. Speaking of which, if Jun Yong fails the exam, then Xianggong should be responsible for enlightening Junyong. Don't let him be dejected and lose his will." Shen Yixiu He pursed his lips and smiled lightly.

  Feng Ziying shook her head again and again, "Wan Jun, you are deliberately digging a hole for your husband."

  Having been with her husband for so long, Shen Yixiu has also become used to some incomprehensible words coming out of his mouth, like the word digging a hole before she didn't understand what it meant, but only after her husband explained it to her.

   "Whether it is digging a hole or not, Xianggong understands in his heart, maybe Xianggong is secretly happy now, carefully planning who should be hired."

  Shen Yixiu's joke made Feng Ziying's face turn red even more, and he waved his hands again and again, "Wan Jun, if you say that again, I won't make this bet with you..."

  Shen Yixiu pretended to be anxious, and took her husband's arm, "The concubine's identity is just a joke, and my husband should hurry to get it. It's impolite to delay and make others wait."

  When Feng Ziying and his group arrived at the Hongbin Building, they saw Zhou Yongchun and Bi Ziyan going up the second floor side by side.

   "The head of the mountain, the head of the school." After Zhou Yongchun became the head of the mountain, the post of head of the school was vacant. After Bi Ziyan resigned from the Ministry of Industry, he was immediately invited to Qingtan Academy to serve as the head of the school.

  Both of them are from Shandong, and Bi Ziyan was originally from Zichuan. Zhou Yongchun is even three or four years younger than Bi Ziyan, but the two have always had a close relationship, so when Zhou Yongchun sent out an invitation, Bi Ziyan readily agreed.

  Feng Ziying is also from Shandong, so Zhou Bi is also very close to Feng Ziying.

   "Ziying is here? I knew they would definitely invite you." Zhou Yongchun smiled and said, "Let's go upstairs together and see who is the leader in this department."

  Feng Ziying was not polite either, so she followed them upstairs, but Bi Ziyan signaled Feng Ziying to stay.

"Head of the courtyard." Feng Ziying didn't know what Bi Ziyan was calling her to do at this time. He and Bi Ziyan were not very familiar with each other, but he had contacted Bi Ziyan a few times and knew that he had worked in the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry, especially as a financial expert. .

"Originally, I didn't work in the court anymore, so I shouldn't meddle in these nosy things, but I heard that Denglai's expenditure was huge, and Wang Ziteng repeatedly attacked the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households. I don't know much about the situation in Denglai, really. Need so much silver? So urgent?"

Feng Ziying didn't expect that the other party was no longer in his position, and he was still dedicated to serving the public. She also had some feelings, and said after a moment of pondering: "The director, Denglai Xinjian, definitely needs money, but it's not that urgent, but I think it needs to be discussed. The construction of the division fleet will definitely cost money, but the scale of the Deng Lai Army has expanded rapidly, which is probably the main reason why the Deng Lai Governor's Mansion does not have enough money?"

   After Bi Ziyan was startled, he couldn't help clapping his hands and sighed, "These warriors have too much selfishness and distraction, and they don't care about the court at all..."

As soon as the words came out, he realized that the person in front of him was also a warrior. Bi Ziyan blushed and hurried to explain, but was stopped by Feng Ziying with a smile: "The director does not need to explain and apologize. I understand what the director means. Among the warriors It is true that many people ignore the overall situation, have serious selfishness, and even have ulterior motives, but this does not mean everyone, the vast majority of people in the army are still aware of the overall situation."

  Bi Ziyan nodded repeatedly, but then said: "Ziying, there are really too few military generals like your father who share your worries."

  Feng Ziying secretly laughed in her heart, if Bi Ziyan learned about the conditions that her father imposed on the Ministry of War this year, I am afraid that Bi Ziyan will scold her father again for spending money like money, extravagance and lust.

  Feng Ziying felt that Bi Ziyan hadn't completely come out of the courtier's thinking, maybe the time was too short, maybe the other party was not suitable for teaching in the academy at all, and it was more appropriate to be a courtier who did practical things.

As soon as I went upstairs, I saw the students of the academy gathered around a dozen tea tables. The appearance of Feng Ziying also attracted the cheers of a group of students. .

   "Brother Zixun, it's been a long time." Feng Ziying also greeted Xu Xie, who was basically determined to stay in the Ministry of Rites, which was appreciated by Li Tingji.

When Xu Xie saw Feng Ziying, he was also in a complicated mood. Every step of the other party was hard to see clearly. He could obviously stay in the court, and he could choose from the Ministry of Officials to the Ministry of Households or the Metropolitan Procuratorate. After getting the news, the other party actually wants to go to the place to work.

   This puzzled Xu Xie. Could it be that Feng Ziying didn't know the gap between Beijing officials and local officials? He didn't know, so Qi Yongtai and the others didn't know either?

  After exchanging pleasantries, Xu Xie saw that there were many people around, so he didn't want to ask too many questions, so he could only drag Feng Ziying, Lian Guoshi, and Fan Jingwen to the same table and wait for that moment to come.

   Ask for a monthly pass!
