Volume C Section 96 Premonition

Emperor Yonglong had already considered this, and Chai Ke also mentioned this in his compromise.

The nine-sided grain salary is undoubtedly the most important, if the amount of silver is not too large, I am afraid that the court can be more stable, if it is beyond the imagination of some people, I am afraid it will cause disputes.

But as far as Feng Ziying mentioned the amount just now, Emperor Yonglong roughly estimated that the concession fee would be around three million taels of silver, which was a bit beyond expectations.

Although the imperial court owes a lot of food and salary to the nine sides, but if it is said that it will make up for the food and salary of the nine sides at once, it is estimated that the general soldiers of the nine sides do not dare to think so, and it would be quite good to allocate a part of it to make up for it within two or three years.

This is only the royalty, and for the proceeds of the sea tax as collateral can be borrowed to the merchants, Emperor Yonglong is not sure, but he estimates that one or two million silver should be available, but can mortgage the sea tax for a few years, but this is uncertain.

As Feng Ziying said, this may require a survey before estimating.

The conversation between Emperor Yonglong and Feng Ziying lasted until the time of the Emperor, and Emperor Yonglong even passed a banquet to let Feng Ziying enjoy a simple imperial meal in the palace, which also made Feng Ziying a little flattered.

At least the interior was shocked and inexplicable, and they had the impression that the elder and the six Shangshu had rarely been left by the emperor for so long, and they were also given food.

The reason why we have been talking about it for so long is also because we need to take into account that once the opening of the sea is started, then it will need a cadre of people who have both prestige and motivation and experience to operate, and at the same time, it needs to be taken into account by various unexpected factors.

It should be said that Emperor Yonglong attaches great importance to this matter and has full prediction of possible problems, which has a lot to do with Emperor Yonglong's cautious style, but it is very necessary in this matter.

Feng Ziying particularly reminded that on the issue of smuggling in eastern Liaodong and the coastal areas of Fujian and Zhejiang, it is necessary to have a good attitude of comprehensively balancing the interests of all parties.

This also reminded Emperor Yonglong that if there was no support from the army, I am afraid that not only would he encounter some resistance, but there might even be many problems and troubles after the opening of the sea, such as the problem of cracking down on pirates and smuggling maritime merchants.

When Feng Ziying returned home, it was already early age.

This entry into the palace was three hours, and it also made the people in the palace nervous.

There are also countless people who pay attention to Feng Ziying's entry into the palace.

Feng Ziying has already met the two first and second assistants of the cabinet, and has also met Zhang Jingqiu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and the rest is the emperor.

Many well-informed people also knew about the task that Feng Ziying undertook when she came back, but before it was officially revealed, everyone was still standing still, waiting for that moment to come.

The next thing Feng Ziying knew that she didn't have much to participate in on the surface, but she would still be pulled by all parties to understand and refer to the question, and she might even be busier than before.

When Emperor Yonglong, the two elders, and some other important ministers discussed and understood their attitudes separately, they would begin to enter the formal process of discussing politics.

The Ministry of Household and the Ministry of War will put forward a strategy, submit it to the cabinet for discussion, and then the cabinet will take out the opinions and submit them to the emperor, if the emperor approves, it may be directly approved by the emperor, if it is not appropriate, it may be left in the middle, and there is a possibility that the matter is major, or the controversy is large, it is possible to directly take it to the court meeting for the ministers to discuss and discuss.

Back in the house, Feng Ziying collapsed directly on the bed.

It's too tiring, in addition to taking pains to deal with all kinds of inquiries from this Yonglong Emperor, the key is that you can't lose your manners, sitting on that brocade stool with a stiff body like that, the taste is too uncomfortable.

How can there be such a pleasure as lying on the bed like this, listening to the massage of the two sisters Jin Chu'er and Yu Chu'er from the shoulders, neck to the waist and legs.

"Lord, you are going to Rongguo Mansion tomorrow, this afternoon, Second Master Lian and Second Master Bao made a special trip to the mansion and told them again." Jin Chu'er's tender yellow gown with a grass-green long skirt was slightly rolled up, kneeling on Feng Ziying's waist and massaging it vigorously, while Yu Chu'er was crouching under Feng Ziying's feet, gently rubbing Feng Ziying's calves.

Nanmu Babu bed is an old thing, it is everyone's work, and it is also specially prepared for Feng Ziying at home after he turned fourteen years old and grew in size by a large margin.

However, if it is winter, Feng Ziying prefers to sleep on the warm kang.

Although this kind of stepping bed is exquisite and gorgeous, it is not as comfortable as the warm kang that burns the earth dragon in winter, but in summer and autumn, when mosquitoes and flies are multiplied, this kind of pulling bed can be hung with silk tents to avoid the disturbance of mosquitoes and flies, which is naturally much more suitable.

"Second Brother Lian and Baoyu are here? What did they say? Feng Ziying was quite surprised, Jiafu had sent a post a long time ago, and she had indeed made an appointment to go to Jiafu tomorrow, but she had never visited her since she came back from Western Xinjiang, so she just took the time to socialize.

If it weren't for Jia Lian and Baoyu's trip, he originally wanted to let Ruixiang run tomorrow to deliver a post explaining that he would not be free in the past two days, and he would have made another appointment, but now it seems that it is really difficult to shirk.

"I didn't say anything when I heard Ruixiang say it, I just said that the eldest master and the second master of Jiafu will wait for the master in the mansion."

Jin Chu'er naturally didn't know the details here, but Caixia also came quietly at noon, although she didn't say anything, but there was also some hope that she would follow her uncle back to Jiafu tomorrow, which made Jin Chu'er also feel that going back to Jiafu tomorrow seemed to have some unusual meaning.

"Oh? The eldest and second masters? Feng Ziying was even more puzzled, it was normal for Jia Zheng to see him, but it was a bit unusual for Jia Yu to see him.

"Also, Caixia next to the second wife of Jiafu also came to find the slave maid at noon, and also talked about the matter of the master going to Jiafu tomorrow, and asked the slave and maid if they wanted to go with the master, and the slave felt that Caixia was interested in coming to inquire whether she was sure to go to Jiafu."

Feng Ziying turned over, and Yu Chu'er hurriedly put the pillow behind Feng Ziying, so that Feng Ziying could lean comfortably on the head of the bed, and she was ready to get out of bed.

was taken aback by Feng Ziying's hand, and subconsciously glanced at her sister, but Jin Chu'er turned a blind eye.

Feng Ziying pulled Yu Chu'er to her side, and her hand unconsciously rubbed on Yu Chu'er's black hair, but she was thinking about what the purpose of this Jia family was.

It was just an ordinary meeting at the palace, but now that it has become such a big battle, it really makes Feng Ziying a little puzzled.

Could it be that something happened to Jiafu again, and he wanted to wipe his ass for them, but he didn't seem to hear any other rumors, especially if Jia Yu came forward.

"Jin Chu'er, what's going on in Jiafu during this time?"

"It's not a big deal, Bao Erye's reading is still like that, it's just that the third master of Nahuan is very energetic in studying now, but his temper is also much bigger, and he has argued with Bao Erye a few times, and was punished twice by the second wife, Aunt Zhao ran to the old man to make trouble, and was punished by the old ancestor Zongming,......"

"That's all?" Feng Ziying shook her head.

Jia Huan looks like he's really going to study? But I'm afraid this little character is also a trouble.

This guy's personality is a bit extreme, and Mrs. Wang deliberately suppresses and squeezes it, and if she doesn't get it, she will have an accident, but she doesn't have the energy to ask about it.

"There is also a saying that the grandmother of the You family came to the Naning Mansion, but the relatives who came didn't seem to have entered the mansion, but lived outside the mansion, and it is said that those relatives all looked a little different,......

"Oh?" Feng Ziying was a little surprised, but it was almost the same, a few days later than her return to Beijing, it was quite fast, but it seemed that Third Sister You didn't come to her house to say hello.

"There is also a letter from Miss Lin's father, saying that her body is not very good,......" As soon as Jin Chu'er said this, Feng Ziying was immediately excited, and she sat up straight all of a sudden: "What about Miss Lin?" ”

Jin Chu'er was inexplicable, "Miss Lin is still in the house, she only said that his father was not in good health, and she didn't say anything else,......"

Feng Ziying breathed a sigh of relief, he thought that the wheel of history continued to roll and roll over, and it was impossible to stop it, but now it seems that Lin Ruhai is not seriously ill, let alone dead.

But if you do the math, it seems that Lin Ruhai passed away almost this year, can it be said that he really changed history?

Feng Ziying was a little unsure, and after thinking for a while, she asked again, "How did you know about the situation in Miss Lin's father's letter?" ”

"It's Zijuan." Jin Chu'er's heart sank, it seemed that this Lin girl was afraid that the possibility of being the Feng family's housewife was getting bigger and bigger.

It's just that Xiangling said that Miss Bao and Uncle also have an agreement, but how is this good?

Isn't it true that the uncle wants to marry two rooms at the same time, and let Miss Bao and Miss Lin be concubines?

Jin Chu'er thought a little far, if it was really two rooms, a personal maid like herself would naturally follow the uncle, but after all, she would have to follow the first room.

This Xiangling has a very good relationship with Miss Bao, and there is a Ying'er over there who is not inferior to Xiangling, and although Miss Lin is very proud of Zijuan, but after all, there is only one, but Miss Lin's temperament is not as modest and gentle as Miss Bao's.

For a while, Jin Chu'er also suffered some gains and losses.

Hearing what Zijuan said, Feng Ziying's heart was slightly stable, tomorrow she wants to find a chance to meet Lin Yatou, and if she is not at all, she will call Zijuan to ask, it will not be good if you don't delay.

But he still has a hunch, but he is afraid that there are some things that he cannot change.

The historical inertia is greater than imagined, just like that Xue Jun, he thought he had avoided it, but he never thought that it would still happen, so he had to prepare mentally in advance, and if something really happened, he could deal with it in time.
