"Yang Yinglong? Banshu Toast? Zheng Chongjian's face became more and more ugly, "Are you two so sure that he is going to rebel?" Doesn't he still have a son in Beijing? ”

"Of course it's better if he doesn't rebel, and we hope so, but some things don't change our will." Feng Ziying said with certainty: "We have been paying attention to the situation in the southwest since last year, you were still in the western Xinjiang at that time, and Fei Xiong also spent a lot of thought, and planted an informant in his hometown, and got a lot of useful information and clues. ”

Zheng Chongjian was silent for a long time before he said faintly: "The imperial court can't afford to fight, if it can be avoided, it is best to avoid it." ”

Feng Ziying and Wang Yingxiong's eyes fell on Zheng Chongjian, and the other party must have some special reason for saying this.

"The western Xinjiang side seems to be calm, but Ziying, you should know, the situation in the two towns of Gansu and Ningxia is eroded, and Lord Chai is a little anxious, after Governor Chen takes office, he will understand that the people in Guyuan Town are constantly changing, and if it weren't for Ziying's father's strong pressure in Yulin Town, I'm afraid that the situation would have been out of place long ago, and now that the three brothers Ling Zun and You have moved to Liaodong, I'm worried that Governor Chen can't control the situation."

Feng Ziying felt a chill down her spine, and she couldn't help but feel creepy, but don't be afraid that because his father took a group of soldiers who can fight and leave Liaodong, this northern Shaanxi will be in a situation, right?

"In the past few years, the weather in Shaanxi has not been good, the drought has continued, the number of displaced people in northern Shaanxi has increased greatly, the civil unrest has continued, bandits are rampant, and the local government has no power to exterminate it, and it is all dependent on the border army to suppress it, once the border army cannot control it, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Zheng Chongjian had only recently returned from Shaanxi, and he knew very well how bad the situation in Shaanxi was now.

The four towns of Gansu, Ningxia, Guyuan and Yulin theoretically belong to the Shaanxi Metropolitan Division, and Chen Jingxuan served as the governor of the three sides, so he was in charge of the army and the people.

"Lord Chen took office this time, and the imperial court also gave a sum of food and salary support,......" Wang Yingxiong weakly defended.

"A drop in the bucket! That's to solve the needs of the army, not to take care of the localities! Ziying, you have also been to Gansu, Ningxia and Yulin, and you know the situation in Guyuan, don't you know to what extent the local erosion has been? Zheng Chongjian pouted and dismissed.

Feng Ziying was silent.

When he returned to Beijing from Western Xinjiang, he actually realized how much silver taels it would cost to rebuild Gansu and Ningxia.

The harm caused by rebellion is not only the rebellion itself, but also the destruction of local order and wealth.

If we want to prevent the people in these places from becoming displaced people and then becoming chaotic people and bandits, then the imperial court must not only provide relief, but also restore the facilities for their daily survival, which cannot be done without two or three years of support, but the imperial court is now only concerned about headaches and headaches, where can it take care of such deep-seated problems?

If we don't have silver, food, cloth, and salt, how can we restore peace to local order?

Especially when Shaanxi has been hit by drought for many years, the people are not able to make a living, so it will inevitably bring civil unrest and even rebellion.

Therefore, Zheng Chongjian said that the imperial court was about to be unable to fight, the situation in Shaanxi was so bad, the imperial court still couldn't take care of it, once the war started in the southwest, where would the imperial court have the spare strength to take care of the rest?

The emperor and the cabinet and even the six ministries are not unaware of the difficulties of Shaanxi, but silver is needed everywhere, so the emperor and the cabinet attach so much importance to Feng Ziying's ability to raise such a large sum of silver from the salt merchants and maritime merchants with his bare hands, even if Feng Ziying has attracted a lot of criticism for this matter, but whether it is the emperor, the cabinet or the Metropolitan Procuratorate are very tacitly ignored.

Whoever can get money for the imperial court, then he is the current savior of the imperial court.

"As long as the trilateral military affairs can be stabilized, Shaanxi will not be in chaos, right?" Wang Yingxiong muttered.

"Hmph, non-bear, you just hope that there will be no chaos? A small mess will turn into a big mess, and what will happen if a spark is thrown into a pile of dead grass, don't you understand? "To Wang Yingxiong, Zheng Chongjian is not so polite.

Wang Yingxiong scratched his head, his face full of bitterness and helplessness, "But there are indeed these changes in the southwest, we can't help but report these situations to the imperial court, right?" Isn't that a cover-up? ”

"At this time, it is still not appropriate to stimulate the southwest side too much, maybe they have ambitions now, but I am afraid they are still observing and hesitating, and what the imperial court lacks now is time, as long as these two years have passed, the situation in Shaanxi and Liaodong can be stabilized and survived, and the concession money and bond income brought by the opening of the sea can enter the household department steadily every year, and at that time there will really be an accident in the southwest, and the imperial court will have to deal with it a lot."

Feng Ziying finally put forward her opinion, "So Fei Xiong and Uncle Fang are just collecting intelligence clues, and only a few people in the military department know about it, just for fear of startling the grass and snakes, causing Yang Yinglong and them to be alert, so they simply launched a rebellion first." ”

"The strategy of delaying the army is not easy to use, how long can it be used? It depends on people's faces. Zheng Chongjian sighed, forced a smile, and stepped forward, "Let's go, I still have to disturb Ziying Mansion today, Uncle Fang and Feixiong both said that the food in your house is not ordinary, it has a different flavor, and I have already been hungry in Shaanxi,......"

"Come on, you are a Shanxi person, how uncomfortable can you be with the Shaanxi diet, and you are not a southerner,......" Wang Yingxiong also scolded back, this guy was not polite to himself before, and he was also a little annoyed.

Several people laughed and returned to the city, but the laughter was a little heavy and worried.

They have all experienced several years of government affairs in the court, especially under the influence of Feng Ziying, they are no longer limited to one city and one corner of the country, and they are accustomed to looking at problems from the perspective of connection and dialectic, so they naturally understand how unfavorable the situation in the court is.

It didn't seem like there was a big problem anywhere, but they could all feel like leaky papier-mâché lanterns everywhere, and maybe a gust of wind and a flickering flame could ignite the lantern and burn everything down, and they were helpless now.

It's a really uncomfortable taste.

Zheng Chongjian and Wang Yingxiong went back after eating, leaving Feng Ziying alone in the study.

He didn't understand that he was crossed over to eat and drink spicy, like a fish in water, arrogant and lascivious, and did everything, how could he become a loyal minister of the feudal dynasty of the world and a *******, *******?

For a while, I was worried that Liaodong was afraid that the Jianzhou Jurchens would take the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, and for a while, I was worried that some history in northern Shaanxi would be staged in advance and cause the collapse of the dynasty, or I was afraid that the rebellion in the southwest would lead to the exhaustion of the national strength of the Great Zhou, and then I was worried that the Japanese would attack and harass the country, and the national economy would shrink, so why did I live so hard?

Shouldn't this be a matter for the cabinet chief or the emperor to worry about? That's it, I seem to have even stimulated the sense of crisis of Zheng Chongjian, Wang Yingxiong, Lian Guoji, and Fang Youdu, so that they consciously or unconsciously follow their own train of thought, and they are really the first-class pure ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In this case, what's wrong with how many women he likes so much, why didn't Emperor Yonglong give himself a second room and a knight?

I have worked so hard for Da Zhou, shouldn't I accept a few more women as wives and concubines?

Thinking of this, Feng Ziying's original mind that was a little ashamed because she was too lascivious suddenly fell out of the clouds, and immediately became justified, one day, they would understand how much they had contributed to Da Zhou.

So, did you comb the clouds first? Feng Ziying touched her chin with her hand and thought.

******

For the arrival of the third ring, Feng Ziying was prepared for a long time.

That day, Baoyu went crazy, Feng Ziying didn't have time to talk to Huan Laosan more, Huan Laosan was afraid that he would be uneasy in his heart.

After all, he is about to take the college exam, and as soon as the academy exam is passed, Jia Huan also knows very well that he does not have the ability to participate in the autumn festival, and he is still blank in the area of current policy theory alone, and it is in vain to go, so it is better to do a good job of the scriptures and righteousness in a down-to-earth manner, and wait until he enters the academy to ponder the policy theory of the current period.

As for the attainments of the current policy theory, Qingtan Academy said second, and no one dared to say first in this big week.

It's just that Tanchun and Huan Laosan came together, which surprised Feng Ziying very much.

You must know that Tanchun rarely comes to his house, and his current identity, with a girl like Tanchun who is waiting for a boudoir, he should not appear.

It can be seen that this girl has deep expectations for Jia Huan.

Jin Chu'er and Xiangling are very fond of the arrival of Tanchun.

Tanchun is very popular and respected in Jiafu, seeing the arrival of Tanchun, Jin Chu'er and Xiangling are also talking around Tanchun, Feng Ziying simply let Jin Chu'er and Xiangling accompany them, and she talks to Huan Laosan first.

"Baoyu is sober?" Feng Ziying was a little unconvinced, she said it herself, dogs can't change eating, can Baoyu repent?

"It is said that I am sober, I have learned from the pain, and the old man has repented, and I don't know if it is true or false, but Brother Feng, I don't care about this now, didn't you also say it, my Jia Huan's future should not be limited to the dry well of Rongguo Mansion,......"

Huan Laosan was as imposing as a rainbow, but Feng Ziying couldn't help coughing dryly.

When did you say that Rongguo Mansion was a dry well? I said that I wanted him not to sit in the well and watch the sky, so this guy simply characterized the Rongguo Mansion as a dry well, and said that he said it himself, and this kind of means is the material for the imperial history in the future.
