Chapter 96 B Scroll

  As soon as she stepped into the not-so-spacious room, Feng Ziying bowed deeply, and then handed over a letter of recommendation: "Feng Keng pays homage to the head of the mountain."

"Are you the Dalang of the Feng family who jumped up during the Linqing civil uprising?" After a long time, the man on the seat seemed to put down the letter of recommendation, and a deep and honest voice sounded: "Brother Ru Jun wrote to me before, and I am sorry for you." I am full of praise, I have read this letter of recommendation, and it is also highly praised, I wonder if you think you deserve such praise?"

  Feng Ziying's heart tightened slightly, and he was another guy who didn't play cards according to common sense, and he was also muttering silently in his heart.

  Qi Yongtai, courtesy name Chengfeng, nicknamed Baishi Jushi, was born in Baoding Prefecture, Northern Zhili Province, and was a Jinshi in the 26th year of Yuanxi.

This person has a resolute and persevering personality, but his official career has not been smooth. Inaugurated as the head of Qingtan Academy.

  His reputation was the most famous when he took office in the Ministry of Military Affairs. He continuously rejected the proposals submitted by the Minister of the Ministry of War and Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War, which caused the Minister of the Ministry of War and Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War to resign to fight.

  In the end, the emperor, who is now the Supreme Emperor, had to order Qi Yongtai to withdraw the refutation, but was rejected, and Qi Yongtai resigned.

  Three years later, Qi Yongtai was reinstated as Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of Officials, and later transferred to Xuezheng of Jiangxi Province and You Shi Lang of the Household Department.

  Feng Ziying never fights a battle unprepared.

  If you want to study in Qingtan Academy, you must find out the details of this academy.

  There are currently two core figures in Qingtan Academy, one is the head of the mountain, Qi Yongtai, and the other is the head of the academy, Ying Zhen.

  Qi Yongtai is from the north, while Guan Yingzhen is from the south.

  Guan Yingzhen is a native of Huangzhou Prefecture, Huguang.

  Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

  Although Qingtan Academy claims to have the best discipline, there are also factions inside.

For example, Qi Yongtai is a mountain leader and a typical northerner, a Jinshi from Baoding Prefecture in Beizhili, and the head of the academy is the role in charge of the daily affairs of the academy. Guan Yingzhen is a typical southerner, representing Huguang. Jinshi was born.

  Qingtan Academy initially focused on scholars from the north, but with the purpose of teaching without discrimination, if you can't even break the regional differences, how can you convince the public?

  So, after Qi Yongtai took charge of Qingtan Academy, he began to consciously break the geographical boundaries, welcoming scholars from all over the north and south to study in Qingtan Academy, and Guan Yingzhen's appointment as the head of Qingtan Academy is also the result of this trend.

  Although a few years ago, Qingtan Academy began to attract scholars from the south to study, but generally speaking, the academy is still dominated by scholars from the north, but this trend is slowly changing and becoming more balanced.

Of course, there is Guan Yingzhen, who is from Huguang, and when the academy recruits southern scholars to study, it is not limited to Nanzhili, Jiangxi, and Zhejiang, where the academic style is the most prosperous, but more balanced. Scholars from Guizhou and Sichuan were included.

  Feng Ziying spent a lot of time inquiring about these situations from various sources.

  Jia Yucun very much provided Feng Ziying with some channels and information in this regard.

  He was a Jinshi in the thirty-fifth year of Yuanxi, three subjects later than Qiao Yingjia and Qi Yongtai, and two subjects later than Guan Yingzhen. If he hadn't been dismissed because of greed, he might have entered the court as a Beijing official at this time.

  Although he is down and out now, he still has some connections, but most of his peers in his subject treat him coldly because of his accident.

Fortunately, he was able to find one or two acquaintances of the same age, and there were also well-informed people who knew that he had climbed the line of Jia and Wang's family and might soon recover, and they were willing to take the initiative to befriend him, so Feng Ziying entrusted him to inquire about the news. Still found the right person.

  In addition to Jia Yucun, Feng Ziying also entrusted Wei Ruolan to help him inquire about this situation.

At any rate, Wei Ruolan's mother is the eldest princess. Although her father only holds an idle title, he is particularly fond of being arty and elegant. literati.

  These people usually have nothing to do, so they gossip about gossip and anecdotes inside and outside the court. Feng Ziying found one or two clearers through Wei Ruolan, and he can know a lot of secrets about the imperial court with a meal of wine and two coins.

  Qi Yongtai's words made Feng Ziying have to think carefully, how to answer can be in Qi Yongtai's eyes, but not too out of line.

"The question of the head of the mountain is difficult for students to answer, but the venerable asked, and dare not not answer." Feng Ziying thought for a while, and then replied: "Whether it is worthy of this praise is not important to the students. It may not be worth mentioning about others, and the court may think that Feng Keng is young enough to do this, or he may have ulterior motives."

   "Oh?" Qi Yongtai became interested and nodded slightly, "There is no intention? Then what do you think the court intends?"

   "My humble opinion, my son, may be used by the court to encourage local officials to forge ahead and be brave in doing things, instead of looking forward and looking back and being tired and shuffling."

  Feng Ziying knew that although Qiao Yingjia gave herself such a letter of recommendation, it could only be regarded as sending herself into the door, but whether she could gain a firm foothold in the academy depended on several aspects.

   And Qi Yongtai is the most critical link.

  Then the answer to my own question must satisfy Qi Yongtai, and it must also be novel and profound.

  A well-regulated answer is easy, Qi Yongtai may also see Qiao Yingjia's recommendation letter and let him pass the test, but this is not what Feng Ziying wants, he needs to leave a deep impression on the other party.

  A gleam of appreciation flashed across Qi Yongtai's eyes. No wonder Qiao Yingjia praised this son in his previous letter not only for being courageous, but also for his ability to observe the situation between the DPRK and China.

   This also made him a little confused.

  A 12-year-old young man, and he is from an ordinary noble family background. If he says he has courage and courage, what does he mean?

   refers to the view of the situation inside and outside the imperial court, and even a deeper level is to try to figure out the future direction of the imperial court.

   How dare you use this on a twelve-year-old boy?

  So Qi Yongtai disapproved of the flattery that his fellow subject used on Feng Ziying, and was even dissatisfied, thinking that Qiao Yingjia had lost his head.

  But just such a question is enough to make Qi Yongtai look at Feng Ziying with admiration.

  This class of martial arts disciples actually have such a level? Or did someone point it out before?

   Question Who knew they would ask him this question? Could it be that there are still people who are unpredictable?

   Obviously neither is possible.

   That is, this young man may have realized something after the Linqing civil uprising, and someone may have pointed him out, so he had some guesses, so he was able to act like this in front of him, and it could not even be ruled out that it was Qiao Yingjia's arrangement.

  But the one who can make Qiao Yingjia work so hard is definitely not someone who is easy to be with. Qi Yongtai still knows a little about his own age, and he is not the kind of person who is just a dog.

  This can only show that Qiao Yingjia is really optimistic about this son.

   These two sentences of Feng Ziying almost pointed out some of the difficulties faced by the current imperial court.

  The Supreme Emperor has been in power for many years and has left a "rich" "political legacy", especially the slack in government affairs in the later period is very prominent.

Lazy administration has become a major chronic disease of the court, and many courtiers have also realized some of the thoughts of the Supreme Emperor, so they are full of praises in political affairs. In fact, many government affairs can be pushed or delayed. drag.

   This kind of ethos has been left behind slowly, and it has even become a kind of natural peace of mind.

  Qi Yongtai was very dissatisfied with the performance of some yamen and principals in the court when he was in charge.

  Now, one of Wu Xun's children came out to study, and he pointed out the difficulties faced by many problems at the moment. Qiao Yingjia recommended him, which should mean that he needs to study and cultivate carefully.

  Especially, the influence of the Supreme Emperor will gradually fade away. The current emperor advocates loyalty and filial piety, and basically follows the style of governance of the Supreme Emperor, and the emperor's intentions are not yet apparent.

  But Qi Yongtai has always firmly believed that this situation cannot continue, otherwise, once the Great Zhou Dynasty encounters another major event like the Japanese Invasion in Imchen, it will really be devastated.

   It’s just that the Supreme Emperor is still here, and the Emperor advocates loyalty and filial piety. It is impossible to suddenly overthrow many of the original Supreme Emperor’s things, but Qi Yongtai has been observing, and Feng Ziying recommended by Qiao Yingjia is undoubtedly a weathervane.

  The emperor praised Li Sancai, Qiao Yingjia and Chen Jingxuan's decisive actions, and also praised Feng Ziying's brave performance. Naturally, Qi Yongtai had a channel to know about this situation, and he had been thinking about it.

   Ask for a ticket. Ask for Zhang Ping book reviews, likes, and memorabilia of characters.
