"Young master, Uncle Zuo came to look for you just now, and the master asked you to come back and go to his study." Yun Sheng changed Feng Ziying's clothes with some trepidation, and said.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Feng Ziying didn't care, he had already noticed that his status in the mansion had improved rapidly in the past two days, whether it was his father, his mother and other people in the mansion, their attitude towards him after the trip to Linqing had achieved great fame.

"I didn't say it." Feng Ziying, who had changed her clothes, tidied up her clothes, "The young master didn't cause trouble outside, did he?" ”

"What can I mess with?" Feng Ziying was a little funny, this girl still regarded herself as herself for a few months, and couldn't help blinking her eyes, "Don't worry, are you still afraid that the master will not give me another meal?" It's different now, I'm afraid that the lord will discuss something with me, so I'll go over immediately. ”

Until Feng Ziying disappeared outside the courtyard gate, Yunshang was still pondering the meaning of the sentence "It's different now".

It seems that the house has indeed been different from the past two days, in the past, the house was revolving around the lord and his wife, and every time the young master was mentioned, the old man and his wife asked the house to disturb the young master less, and let the young master concentrate on reading, but now it is obviously different.

The time and frequency when the master and his wife looked for the young master suddenly increased, no wonder the young master said that he wanted to go out to study, so as to save all kinds of complicated things in the house affecting his study.

"Are you really going to go out to study? What are you going to do here? Feng Tang motioned for his son to sit down, and in the past, he stood aside and listened to his lesson, but now Feng Tang felt that maybe the lintel of Feng's family was really going to fall on this son, and he had to listen to his son's thoughts now.

"It's simple on the side of the Guozijian, the sacrificial wine side has a good impression of me, and the Si Ye side also knows the truth in the prison now, everyone comes to the monthly exam, and many people are even fooled by the monthly exam, and only come when they need to do things." Feng Ziying is not worried about this, "I take leave according to the rules, I arrive on time for the exam, and the performance is not bad, they can't say anything about me, not to mention that everyone has formed a convention." ”

Feng Tang nodded, he was afraid that he would be pampered and arrogant, and felt that Linqing had done a good job, and there were also praises outside, so he floated away, and now he seems to be very calm.

"Ziying, it's good that you understand the severity, today Wang Ziteng came to the military department to see me, and he spoke highly of you." Feng Tang was in a good mood, "Zuo Lang Zhang Jingqiu and Master Zhang also asked me a few words, maybe ......"

"Father, you're thinking a little too much, I remember I told you, there's no need to rush such things, it's self-defeating if you don't get it right." Feng Ziying felt that her father's impatient mood seemed to cover his usually good emotional intelligence, why couldn't he look at it like this?

On the Emperor's side, you have been marginalized, and then you have not been approved by the emperor's side, who will easily give you such a first-class position as the chief soldier of Datong Town?

Wang Ziteng is just a gesture of goodwill.

In fact, even if he is admitted to the top prize now, it will not mean much to Wang Ziteng, and it will be at least ten or eight years later if he can affect him.

As for Zhang Jingqiu, it was a card of the emperor, how could it be easy to turn it over to you?

It's nothing more than Zhang Jingqiu, who is very good at winning people's hearts and clever means, so his father has misunderstood, in Feng Ziying's opinion, unless the emperor clearly states his attitude, the result cannot change much.

"Ziying, I know ,......" seemed to be a little regretful, but Feng Tang still quickly cheered up, "Even Wang Ziteng specifically told me about you, I think the situation of the Linqing people change is probably already spread to the court, to the emperor and a few pavilion elders, this is a great thing, no matter which road you take in the future, the emperor and the pavilion elders have an impression of you, then many roads will be much smoother and much wider." ”

From his father's words, Feng Ziying knew that his father's mind had changed a lot, although he did not object to going out to study in the academy yesterday, but he was not very supportive, probably still felt that the Feng family suddenly wanted to put on a posture of breaking away from the group of martial nobles and letting his son-in-law go for scientific research, such a change was difficult to accept, and it was easy to attract some suspicion and hostility from the group of martial nobles.

But now, Feng Tang has a clear attitude, supporting himself to study, supporting himself to participate in the scientific examination, and even supporting himself to step into the civil service group through the scientific examination, even if it will take a long time, and even encounter some twists and turns, but Feng Ziying knows it, and Feng Tang also knows that these are all worth it.

"Father, I said before, although our family is from a martial arts family, we all know that our Feng family cannot be compared with the four kings and eight dukes, and even like the Marquis of Xiangyang, the Marquis of Jinxiang, the Marquis of Chuanning, the Marquis of Pingyuan, the Marquis of Dingcheng, and the Marquis of Jingtian, these people are more confident than our family, if it weren't for the uncle, the second uncle and you who have been fighting for the imperial court in the border for so many years, the eldest uncle and the second uncle and even the horse leather shroud, I am afraid that you, the third-class Shenwu general, may not be able to get it."

Feng Ziying felt that it was time for her father to completely sober up and calm down, and she could no longer continue to indulge in the inherent state of mind of the past.

"Don't think that I want to go out to study, it's a big rebellion to go to the scientific examination, just to draw a line with whom, it's not so exaggerated, didn't Jia Jiajing Shibo be admitted to the Jinshi twenty years ago? Didn't Zheng Shibo's eldest brother Zhu also take the Xiucai exam early, if it weren't for his poor health and early death, I'm afraid that he would have been a jinshi a long time ago, at least it should be a meritorious person, right? ”

Feng Ziying's cold tone calmed Feng Tang's excitement a lot, and he nodded silently and motioned for his son to continue.

"Father, let me say something you don't like to hear, if the martial arts nobles were placed sixty years ago, they would definitely be relied on by the imperial court as Mount Tai, but at that time, the Great Zhou Dynasty was established at the beginning of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and you were needed to stabilize the situation, but now it is different. The emperor of this dynasty is benevolent and righteous, neither like the first Han Dynasty and the former Ming Dynasty to cook and slaughter the heroes and nobles, nor like the former Song Dynasty to release the military power with a glass of wine, and the heroes and nobles are still merciful, but we as courtiers have to see the situation clearly, can not be pampered and arrogant, to the literature and the military is the rule of this dynasty, if you still rely on the honors and nobles to feel that you can do whatever you want, then it is not far from death. ”

These words can be described as heart-wrenching, and Feng Tang's heart was shocked when he heard it, if it weren't for the father and son, Feng Tang would really want to go up with two big mouths, even so, he was angry.

"Father, don't be angry, today's words only come out of the son's mouth, only into your ears, out of this door, after today, I will not say it again, and I will not admit it."

Seeing Feng Ziying say this, Feng Tang felt a little relieved in his heart, "Ziying, even if you say such things to me, you can't say anything more." ”

"Dad, you don't have to, I know the severity." Feng Ziying seemed very indifferent, the deeper he went into this world, the more he knew about this world, the more he felt that he was in love with this world.

Falling in love with everything in this world, the forward-looking advantages, the omnipresent class privileges and class privileges, the order of male superiority and inferiority, all of this gave him a kind of freedom that had already occupied all the opportunities in the world.

Of course, he also knows very well that in order to turn the advantage of the opportunity into a real victory, he still needs to accumulate and work hard, there are all kinds of uncertain variables, and he may even capsize in the gutter, and he will pay a heavy price for underestimating anything he does not understand, which is an unforgettable truth that he has drawn from decades of official life in his previous life.

But isn't that the most enjoyable part? Only the gains from struggle are worthy of the most luscious tasting, and the gains are lost, but a little bit of taste is lost.
