The Metropolitan Procuratorate has always been in the middle of the political vortex, jumping from one peak to another, and there will hardly be too many intervals, which is determined by its nature and cannot be changed.

As the right deputy of the Imperial Palace, Qiao Yingjia naturally had already been conscious of this, so he didn't reveal the various attacks and criticisms he faced in Feng Ziying's half a sentence.

The name of the criminal department is above the name of the criminal department, but in fact, the cases transferred to the Dali Temple need to be transferred here like some of the criminals of the dragon forbidden captain, because of this, the more complex composition and huge scale have made those who do not know the situation have been secretive here, but in fact, this is the focus of countless political forces fighting and playing.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate won a complete victory in the two Zhejiang salt political storms last year, ending with the fall of a salt inspector, a political envoy and two prefects, and there were countless other shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

This can be regarded as the largest corruption case in the Great Zhou court in the past ten years, spanning Emperor Yuanxi and Emperor Yonglong, and the amount of property seized and the number of people who need to be assigned as slaves are beyond imagination.

This year, the Metropolitan Procuratorate turned its knife to the Criminal Department, and they joined forces with the Criminal Department to attack the incident together and launched an operation against the prison under the control of the Criminal Department.

This time, because there was no cooperation with the dragon forbidden lieutenant, it was not so smooth, although some problems were also listed, but in front of the veterans of the criminal department, Dali Temple and the dragon forbidden lieutenant, the Metropolitan Procuratorate did not really achieve much substantive results, so it fell into a tug-of-war.

Of course, it doesn't mean that the Metropolitan Procuratorate has collapsed, and the Criminal Department is not monolithic, there is also hope that some people will fall off the horse to make room, and there are also those who support cooperation with the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so there are still results, but they are not as high as imagined and expected, and they are also facing a backlash from the Criminal Department and Dali Temple.

It has affected the normal operation of the judicial system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate also needs to weigh it.

"Hmm, you've heard that, too?" Qi Yongtai was a little surprised, this time should have been the most nervous time for Feng Ziying and them, before the results of the Autumn Season, I am afraid that no one had the heart to think about anything else.

"Well, I've heard a little about it, it's nothing more than that there are all kinds of unspeakable things in the prison of the Criminal Department, but this doesn't seem to be a new thing, right?" When she was drinking with Wei Ruolan, Han Qi and Liu Xianglian, Feng Ziying heard Wei Ruolan mention the storm of the prison of the Criminal Department.

Now both sides are riding tigers, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate is not fully prepared and cannot be killed with one blow, so it is a little embarrassing.

Fortunately, this is not an attack launched by Qiao Yingjia, it should be a battle led by another left deputy capital Yushi, well, it is probably a little jealous that Qiao Yingjia teamed up with Yang He to achieve great success in Liangzhejiang last year.

Everywhere is full of struggles, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate is no exception, but everyone seems to have recognized such a mode of operation, as long as it is within the boundaries, everyone follows the rules.

"Hmph, Ziying, it seems that you haven't really set foot on your career yet, and it seems that your mentality has begun to change." Qi Yongtai snorted a little displeased, obviously a little dissatisfied with his proud disciple's attitude towards this kind of dirty thing in the prison of the Criminal Department.

Feng Ziying was taken aback, and hurriedly got up and apologized: "Master Qi, the disciple is a little presumptuous, but the disciple has followed his father in the army for several years, and he has seen and heard of such things, so he ......"

"Ziying, I know your experience is different from that of other students, but this is not a reason for us as scholars to be insensitive, these dirty deeds are also the goal of our efforts to eliminate the accumulated shortcomings." Qi Yongtai looked at his disciple seriously.

This disciple of his own is unparalleled in political comprehension and judgment, but in terms of political beliefs, he has always been a little too tactful and lacks some persistence.

Qi Yongtai has been trying to change Feng Ziying's point, but he realized that it was difficult, but fortunately, this disciple still had a minimum bottom line, which also made him feel more at ease.

"The disciple has been taught." Feng Ziying bowed solemnly and nodded.

"Well, you are still young, in the future you will understand that as a Shilin Wenchen, the most important thing for us is not to go against our hearts, and not to deviate from the beliefs we have pursued all our lives,......" Qi Yongtai sighed with some emotion.

Feng Ziying still admits that the scholars of this era still have some of their own beliefs to pursue, well, it should be said that a considerable number of Shilin officials are like this.

Of course, there are many people who are mediocre and have nothing to pursue, and there are many people who are unscrupulous and have no faith at all.

Feng Ziying hopes that she can emulate Qi Yongtai, but she can't follow it all.

Rigidity is easy to break, lack of flexibility and skill, often can not achieve the best results you want, at this point, whether Feng Ziying was an official in the past life or what she has seen and heard in this life, she has already realized that there is no big difference.

Qi Yongtai is too upright and too insistent on his own beliefs, while Qiao Yingjia is more utilitarian, Feng Ziying feels that she may be like Qiao Yingjia, but she should strive to be on par with Qi Yongtai.

Feng Ziying had dinner at Qi Yongtai's mansion before leaving.

Fortunately, Qi Yongtai is not as honest and strict as the outside world imagines, and it is difficult to maintain even ordinary life, it should be said that this dinner is quite rich.

Officials like Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia rarely leave people to eat now, except for specific Tongjia friends or relatives, or proud protégés like Feng Ziying, ordinary officials, no matter how high their quality is, or how close their relationship is, will not be like this.

And being able to eat a meal at the house of the left servant of the Ministry of Officials is enough to show off to the world.

Of course, Feng Ziying was not so shallow, but at least when he left at night, he saw at least a dozen carriages and sedan chairs waiting outside the gate of Qi Mansion, which meant that Qi Yongtai might have to meet some guests at night.

This puts a lot of pressure on some people, but for many more, it is indeed the sweetness of supreme power, and it is difficult to let go of it once you drink it.

The late autumn evening is undoubtedly the most comfortable time in the capital, but the capital has already begun to fall into darkness.

Of course, there are still lights on the street, whether it is the lanterns on the doors of wealthy mansions, or the signboards of some wine shops and theaters, they can be faintly visible under the lights.

It is the most exciting time for the scholars to call friends in twos and threes, and I don't know how many people are ecstatic, and I don't know how many people are frustrated, and buying drunk may be the only best way for them to pour out their emotions, which is also playing out this scene in the capital city and even in the provincial capitals of various provinces.

When Feng Ziying returned to her home, it was already two minutes in the first two quarters.

It was almost dark, and when I stepped into the door, I saw Ruixiang rushing up, "Master, you're finally back,......"

Feng Ziying glanced at the other party angrily, "What's the matter, what a fuss, didn't I ask you to report to your wife and aunt?" I have something. ”

"Uh, sir, you don't take this matter too seriously." Ruixiang really admired his young master's big heart, and was speechless.

Such a big thing, the cave room spent candle night, when the gold list was titled, although this middle lift is not as good as the palace test, but it is not far behind, if ordinary people are lifted, it is simply a family can climb to the sky in one step.

Even if it was a family like the Feng family, I didn't see my wife and aunt's wife, they were crying and laughing, wiping their tears, and giving everyone in the mansion red and happy silver after learning that the young master was raised.

Ruixiang himself took fifty taels, which is almost equivalent to his monthly money for a year.

Even Baoxiang, the kid, didn't follow the young master for long, but he also took twenty taels of silver, which made countless maids and boys in the mansion extremely red.

Even the average subordinate has a reward of eight taels to ten taels, and those who are powerful around his aunt and wife can have twenty taels of silver.

Such a good thing, even the New Year's reward is far less, no wonder the whole house is jubilant.

But this lord walked back alone unhurriedly, without even bringing anyone around him, and he didn't even come back to eat dinner, which made everyone in the house almost sad to death.

"What can it be?" Feng Ziying wiped her mouth, and then said casually: "Let Yunshang pour me a bowl of tea, I can't get used to the tea in my mother's room, I'll go to my mother's house." ”

"Uh, sir, is there anyone waiting for you?" Ruixiang's expression was a little embarrassed and strange, and he scratched his head.

"And the guests? At this time? "Dao Xi shouldn't be right at this time, Feng Ziying looked at Ruixiang with an embarrassed expression suspiciously, why didn't she see Yunshang come out to pick him up? In the past, it was already pounced, but today it is gone?

"No, it's the second master of Rongguo Mansion, Mingyan and a girl named Qingwen came over, Mingyan is on the corner door over there, Miss Qingwen and Sister Yunshang are familiar with each other, so they went to Sister Yunshang." Ruixiang salivated and said: "It's good for them to come here, Mrs. is very generous, and they have rewarded those who came to congratulate them today, Mingyan and Miss Qingwen both rewarded six taels of silver, and Mrs. Aunt also gave each of them a golden melon seed." ”

"Baoyu's people? Mingyan, Qingwen? Feng Ziying suddenly became interested, how could Baoyu send these two people to her mansion at this time? Why should he come over by himself, what is this boy?

"Well, I came here at noon, and I refused to leave, saying that they wouldn't dare to go back until the master came back, and the second master of Bao gave a death order, if he didn't invite the master back to Jiafu, they wouldn't go back." Mingyan squeezed his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I heard that Second Master Bao is afraid that the old master will be beaten, so I must invite the young master back to save my life." ”

"Ridiculous! How can there be such a thing?! Feng Ziying didn't believe it at all, and scolded with a smile.
