Section 59 No politics (the first is to ask for a monthly pass!) )
Feng Ziying left school three days early, which can be regarded as using the special leave given by Guan Yingzhen.
The classmates have already made an appointment with him to enter the Beijing Normal City during the spring break, and take a good look at the places that can be visited in the Beijing Normal City during the spring vacation.
For these students whose family conditions are not too good, it is indeed a very happy thing to have a classmate with a good family background, who is generous and respected, in Jingshi City.
"Dad plans to go to Shandong after the New Year?" The heat in the room was smoky, and the earth dragon burned a lot, and Feng Ziying, who had just returned home, was even a little uncomfortable.
In addition to her parents and aunt, the rare Aunt Su and Aunt Xie are all there.
From returning to Jingshi City until going to Qingtan Academy to study, Feng Ziying really didn't meet these two aunts at a while, but more often than not, she met in the house and said hello.
In fact, the life of a woman in the house is really a bit boring these days, at most, it is to find two people in the house who can speak, wipe the cards, talk, and occasionally relatives from the hometown come to walk around, talk and say, and then you can go to the temple in January to see the incense and pray for blessings.
Her mother is quite atmospheric in this regard, and even handed over part of the property to several aunts to manage, of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that she has her own sister-in-law.
The other aunts don't have sons, so they can't pose a challenge at all, and no matter how young and beautiful they are, it's all equal to nothing, is it really a wife and a son-in-law, or an only son, who is competing?
Aunt Su is from Hangzhou, she seems to be about the same age as her own aunt, maybe a little younger, her daughter is only five years old, and she belongs to that kind of Jiangnan woman at first glance, she is weak and weak, and she doesn't talk much.
And Aunt Xie is a Datong, the youngest, it looks like she is less than thirty years old, it seems that her father has only been included for more than ten years, and she should have been accepted after she was born.
It's a pity that this Aunt Xie has not come out since she entered the door, Feng Ziying estimates that it is mostly because of her father, and the old lady is just that, but the two aunts of Aunt Xie and Su Xie are not very old, but after so many years, there has been no news, and it is estimated that the father has no confidence.
Both of them are women from good families, with the Feng family's family and prestige, naturally some daughters of good families are willing to enter the door as concubines, and it is impossible for the Feng family to do anything to bully men and women.
"Well, you've arranged it for your father, what choice do I have?" scolded Feng Ziying angrily, Feng Tang found that since he beat his son back from Shandong, his status and voice in the family have plummeted.
In the past, he was worried that his son would never grow up, but now he is worried that his son is too showy, so that he now has to rely on his son's reputation when he walks outside, and he has to consult his son for many things at home.
"Dad, you have wronged your son by saying this, and your son is also thinking about the Feng family, the Feng family is glorious, isn't that also Dad, you have a light on your face?"
Feng Ziying naturally did not hesitate to put on a high hat for her father at this time.
"When His Royal Highness Shouwang came down to the academy last month, he specially took his son's hand and said that the emperor and the prince of Zhongshun often mentioned that our family is loyal and brave, and what about the performance of the uncle and you in the battle of Hulunsai,......"
As soon as he heard his son talk about this, Feng Tang's face slowly sank, as if he was thinking about something.
Last month's Shilin Festival was undoubtedly the most talked about topic in the city of Beijing in the past month, from the imperial palace cabinet to the peddlers and pawns, and became the most talked about after tea and dinner.
The prince of Yizhong was a blockbuster at the event, and the article he made not only won the praise of Wang Yongguang, Zhu Guozhen and Miao Changqi and other great Confucians, but also competed in the city of Beijing, and for a time Prince Yizhong was in the limelight.
To be honest, Feng Ziying is happy to see this happen.
Only the insiders know the role they play in this preaching and preaching activity, but it is a good thing for him that Prince Yizhong is in the limelight now, as the mountain chief and the head of the court said, from now until next autumn, his mind should be on reading, and he should not think about anything else.
His thoughts are too mixed and his reputation is too great, if he can't even pass the autumn season, then he will really become a joke of Qingtan Academy and even Beidi Academy.
In the eyes of Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen, it is already the most basic requirement for him to pass the Qiuyu exam, which was unthinkable before Feng Ziying came to Qingtan Academy.
But when it comes to the reputation of the college, all resources must be tilted towards oneself.
In the next step, not only will Zhou Jiaoyu become his full-time teacher, but Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen will also take time to specialize in one-on-one tutoring for themselves, which is a special opportunity that no one has ever enjoyed since the establishment of the academy, which makes Feng Ziying flattered.
Feng Tang's face was not good-looking, but a few women couldn't care about it so much.
"Ziying, since His Royal Highness King Shou said this, then why didn't you mention the matter of the uncle's knighthood? After the death of the uncle, the family withered, and your father once mentioned it to the imperial court, but there was no follow-up, could it be that the title that the Feng family had earned with his name was so lost because of the heir? ”
Duan's impatient question made Feng Ziying also smile dumbly, "Mother, how can His Royal Highness King Shou care about such a thing, and at that time, it was the matter of the Emperor Taishang, and it is impossible for the Emperor to turn over this kind of old adult accounts when the Emperor Taishang, isn't it uncomfortable?" ”
"Then isn't our Feng family's loss in vain, and we can only knock out our teeth and swallow blood?" Duan's was very angry, "The imperial court treats the heroes so lightly, who is willing to work for the imperial court in the future, if you want to say to me, your father should not plan for revenge again, anyway, Ziying is also out of luck now, why do you have to work hard again, master, it is better to be at home and relax." ”
Duan's words immediately won the approval of several other women.
This big family relies on a man, although Ziying looks good now, but after all, she is still young, if the old man comes out, there are three long and two short, this big family is really going to lose the backbone, what will become of it, it's really hard to say.
"Women, what do you know?" Feng Tang reprimanded impatiently: "If there is no man to support you outside, do you think you can be at home at ease?" ”
Feng Ziying immediately heard that there was something in her father's words, and wanted to say more, but was stopped by her father with his eyes, obviously her father didn't want to talk about this in front of her mother and a few aunts, so she couldn't help but say nothing.
Seeing that Feng Tang was angry, although the Duan family was not angry, they didn't dare to say anything more, and it was not their turn to intervene in such external matters.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Feng Ziying didn't want to come back with great difficulty, but it made the atmosphere at home discordant, especially the old lady, she was in a bad mood, and if she didn't get it right, she had to give herself a moth.
"Dad, what my mother said also has some truth, of course, my son didn't say that it was inappropriate to seek revenge, but we also have a choice, too hard or dangerous work, Dad, you have to take it easy, you look at the people who are going to run to fifty, compared to ten or twenty years ago when you were young, you don't think about yourself, but also for our family to think about it, my mother and a family are counting on you to be able to hold your grandson."
Feng Tang also realized that his previous attitude was a little rough, and his wife was also thinking about himself, besides, there were several other aunts in front of him, so it was a bit too much.
"Well, Madame's words are not unreasonable, but sometimes we are ......" couldn't find the right words to describe it for a while, Feng Ziying immediately picked up: "People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves?" ”
Feng Tang was stunned for a moment, but he also had a bit of that artistic conception, but in the end he sighed, "If Ziying steps into this trip in the future, she will not be able to escape, and if she is in it, she will not be able to help herself." ”
Seeing his son's help, Duan's husband was also relieved, his face suddenly looked much better, and his gaze at his son was also more kind.
Thinking of this, Duan couldn't help but glance at a few aunts, including his sister, and the smug energy on his face could immediately scrape off several layers, even Feng Ziying couldn't look at it.
"Hmph, the master knows that the concubine is for the sake of the lord and the good of the family, forget it, let's go down and wait for the two of them to talk." Duan got up, and then told Feng Ziying again, "After talking to your father, come and sit in your mother's room, let your mother take a good look at whether you have lost weight, and your mother has something to say to you." ”
Feng Ziying saw that her father was frowning again, and estimated that something had to happen, but at this time, she could only nod her head in agreement.
After a few women went out, leaving only Feng Tang and Feng Ziying, Feng Tang spoke: "Do you know how much turmoil Prince Yizhong's performance at this grand event in your academy this time has caused a lot of turmoil?" ”
"Hehe, it's just an article, no matter what, what can it be? Can it be safe and secure, can it fix the country? Feng Ziying laughed, but in fact, he knew what his father was hiding.
"Hmph, how can it be so simple?" Feng Tang's face was gloomy, "On the second day after the incident, the Emperor Taishang specially summoned Prince Yizhong and Prince Yizhong's son, and also left dinner, according to the outside world, since the Emperor Taishang abdicated, he has never left anyone to eat in Ningshou Palace, and it is said that he also rewarded the prince with a treasure inkstone and a seal from his youth, well, it was the private seal of the Emperor Taishang when he had not yet ascended the throne. ”
Feng Ziying was slightly surprised, it was okay to stay for dinner, grandfather liked his grandson's literary performance, no matter how he said it, it was reasonable, but the gift of inkstone, especially the private seal, was still the private seal before the emperor ascended the throne, which is easy to make people think about it.
Most of these private seals left by his side have some meaning, but at this time, they were given to Prince Yizhong's son, which is too exaggerated, or too apolitical.
