Seeing that the spring break had passed like this, Feng Ziying knew that she was about to face the election of the Jinshi after three years of Jinshi, like other Jinshi in the fifth year of Yonglong.

When I went to the Hanlin Academy, I felt that there was some restlessness inside, and the students of the 12th and 13th cadres suddenly became closer, and everyone was discussing their respective whereabouts.

Until the last moment, no one knows where they are going, and this will not be settled until after the spring competition of Yonglong's eighth year.

After sprinting hard with a gun and a horse, Feng Ziying turned over from Third Sister You's white and plump body, and leaned comfortably on the cushion beside her.

The second sister You next to her had already leaned over and lay down next to her, tucking the brocade quilt by the way.

"Sister Tianqi is here again." Second Sister You said softly.

Feng Ziying was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that the sister that Second Sister You said was Shen Yixiu.

From the first day that Shen Yixiu married into the Feng family, the Duan family looked forward to Shen Yixiu's early pregnancy, and during that month, Feng Ziying basically rested in Shen Yixiu's house and worked hard.

However, the sky does not fulfill people's wishes, Shen Yixiu came to Tianqi in the middle of last month, and that's it, this month is here again, and it is estimated that the old lady will be disappointed again.

Sister You also cares about Shen Yixiu's belly.

The eldest woman was not pregnant, so the two sisters had to wait, and if they wanted to go to bed, they had to think of a way or the wrong time to prevent pregnancy.

Third Sister You also cleaned up in the nest before coming over and leaning on Feng Ziying.

"There's no hurry." Feng Ziying said that she was not in a hurry, but she knew that Sister You was in a hurry, and of course Shen Yixiu was also in a hurry.

However, this kind of thing is not in a hurry, she has worked very hard, and Shen Yixiu has also changed from being shy and astringent at the beginning to taking the initiative to cater to her now, and the pressure of this mother-in-law has also brought her a great burden of thought.

Unlike Second Sister You, who thinks about this kind of thing all day long, although Third Sister You is much better in the first room than the original youth, she doesn't care too much about these things, "Master, are you going to go down in March?" ”

"Well, if there are no accidents, it should be." Feng Ziying didn't hide this from her family, Shen Yixiu and Eryou knew about it, but there was no clear statement about where to go.

Feng Ziying preferred to stay in the north, while Guan Yingzhen hoped that Feng Ziying would go to several large prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, such as Yangzhou, Songjiang, Ningbo, Suzhou, and Hangzhou.

Guan Yingzhen's reason is also simple and practical.

Feng Ziying is too young, too young, too shallow, and famous for proposing the strategy of opening the sea, and has a set of economic strategies, so like the Jiangnan Prefectures are all economically rich mansions, and they are also the great tax mansions of the imperial court.

When the three years come, as long as Beijing Cha is excellent, you can consider returning to Beijing, and you can be promoted to a level to take charge of a mansion, and being in charge of a mansion is often a very important step in the rules of promotion in the political arena of the Great Zhou.

is like the comparison between Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia, Qiao Yingjia is because he has served in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for a long time and lacks the qualifications to be trained in the local area, so his career promotion is not as smooth as Qi Yongtai.

Qi Yongtai not only served as the same governor in the Ningguo Mansion of Nanzhili, but later served as the prefect of the Zhangde Mansion in Henan, so that even after resigning from the official position and teaching in the opposition for a few years, he still jumped into the court.

"Then go to the south or stay in the north?" Feng Ziying saw that Third Sister You was full of curiosity, and couldn't help but reach out and squeeze it.

"The slave family will go wherever the master goes, but if it is a good life, I am afraid that it is still better in Jiangnan." Third Sister You pressed her body closer to the man, and her emerald green belly pocket trembled and trembled, which made people look at it.

"Hey, don't you like the taste of Jiangnan's food?" Feng Ziying was very impressed, and when Third Sister You followed her to Jiangnan for the first time, she felt that the taste was not suitable, and she ate very little, and it took a long time to slowly get used to it.

"I think it's good to get used to it, but I don't want to go to Jiangnan?" Third Sister You has plump lips like fire, and her gray-blue eyes are like a night civet cat in the light of the candlelight.

"It's not whether you want to go to Jiangnan or not, it depends on how the imperial court arranges it." Feng Ziying pondered for a moment, "Going to Jiangnan has the advantage of going to Jiangnan, and staying in the north also has the advantage of staying in the north, I personally think it is more appropriate to stay in the north, Jiangnan is too far away from Jingshi City after all." ”

In this era of extremely underdeveloped communications, beyond Shuntianfu, it is really a foreign city, and outside of Beizhili, in the minds of many Jingshi people, it is a countryside thousands of miles away.

And Jiangnan for the civil and military officials in the capital city, more sources of taxes, or more of a drunken gold fan, ordinary people only exist in the heart of an illusory concept.

As Qiao Yingjia said, he is first of all a Beidi scholar, and the strategy of opening the sea has been greatly beneficial to Jiangnan, if he goes up to serve as an official in Jiangnan, no matter how good he is, he is afraid that he will also be attacked by the Beidi scholars, and may even be regarded as a betrayal, which is unavoidable.

Moreover, although the south of the Yangtze River is rich and prosperous, it is also a place rich in taxes, but in addition to several large prefectures such as Yangzhou, Suzhou and Jinling, even if the tax income of Songjiang, Hangzhou and Ningbo is far better than that of the rich places in the north, but the status in the imperial court is not high, and it is not even as good as Baoding, Hejian, Taiyuan, Datong and Jinan.

In addition, the closer it is to Jingshi City, the higher the probability of it being known in the court, and the more timely it can get some news and rumors within the court, which is also very important to Feng Ziying.

Qiao Yingjia's opinion should be quite incisive, and it is difficult for a veteran who has not been immersed in the court for many years to taste the taste, just like Shen Xuan, who originally had the opportunity to go to Changzhou Mansion as the prefect, but finally chose Dongchang Mansion, which is to take this into account.

Seeing the two women beside him curled up beside him like cats, without saying a word, just listening to her narration so faintly, Feng Ziying couldn't help but reach into the body and patted the two warm carcass, "Why, so worried that the master won't take you there?" Still unwilling to leave Jingshi? ”

"Where the master goes, we will go, but the wife and aunt have no one waiting around." Second Sister You whispered.

"You're filial." Feng Ziying smiled and stroked Second Sister You's soft and fluffy hair.

My aunt likes Second Sister You's temperament very much, she feels honest and reliable, and she is diligent, and she can't be shocked when she goes to greet her every day, although she doesn't like it, but Feng Ziying likes it, so that the concubine who can be liked by her husband but is honest and does not provoke right and wrong is undoubtedly the most popular.

Hearing the teasing in her husband's words, Second Sister You was a little shy and twisted her body.

I can bear all kinds of fancy things on the bed, but I can't stand her husband's ridicule, Feng Ziying feels that this Second Sister You is really a gift from God.

"Well, look, maybe your sister may not follow your master." Feng Ziying was also thinking that if Shen Yixiu could get pregnant earlier, then she could stay in Jingshi City, and she would take Eryou to the post, and she estimated that the old lady also thought so.

"By the way, Master, Najia Mansion sent a post to ask Master to go over there tomorrow, saying that the concubine Niangniang wants to see Ye, and I don't know what it means?" Second Sister You suddenly remembered something.

"Well, you'll find out when you go." Feng Ziying didn't want to say much about this matter, so she specially came to send a post to let her go to Jiafu to wait for her to see, Feng Ziying also felt tired, this Jia Yuanchun really felt that she was a legitimate concubine, could she point fingers, or did she have other intentions?

Feng Ziying was more inclined to the latter, but he would rather be the former, it was just a matter of Jiafu, but if it was the latter, what would he summon him for?

What Feng Ziying is most afraid of is that the other party came with some meaning of the concubine or even the emperor, which is tricky.

********

"The Feng family is said to have replied, and Uncle Feng agreed to come to the house." Baoqin whispered while combing the hair of the concubine sitting in front of the dressing mirror that came from the West.

"What did the master say?" Yuan Chun's face floated with a touch of worry, his fingers were like jade, warm and white, and he gently pinched the mud gold incense note.

"Well, it was sent by Second Master Bao, and I saw Uncle Feng specifically." Huqin said cautiously.

Listening to Baoqin mentioning Baoyu, the melancholy on Yuan Chun's face gradually disappeared, revealing a smile, "Baoyu heard that he has been studying harder and harder in the past six months, and I heard that "Today's News" contains what he wrote. ”

"Don't worry, Niangniang, with Uncle Feng taking care of you, Second Master Bao will definitely have a good future." Huqin relieved Yuan Chun, "But Niangniang has to stay in the house for two nights, and Manager Xia also needs to take care of it." ”

"Hmph, that old slave, what else can you do besides asking for silver?" A trace of anger flashed across Yuan Chun's face, and then he became depressed again, "That's it, you go and prepare five hundred taels of silver to send it, so as not to make noise about this old thing." ”

Seeing Baoqin go out, Yuan Chun got up, walked to the window, looked at the small garden outside the window, and was distracted for a while.

When I really came to the palace, I knew the taste of this kind of day, Yuanchun couldn't describe it in words, regret was meaningless, and I never even had the opportunity to regret it, sometimes I woke up from a dream, the embroidered pillow was soaked, and I didn't know when this kind of day would end?

But in addition to this kind of suffering, he also had to be involved in those tricks, which made Yuan Chun feel even more exhausted.

It's just that from all kinds of fetters and inextricable troubles at home and in the palace, Yuan Chun found that he was powerless to refuse and get rid of.

Maybe this is my life, a life that I can never break free?

Looking at the few strands of emerald green sprouts outside the window, it seemed that they were already breaking free from the shackles of the chill and releasing a piece of greenery, Yuan Chun thought of himself, what about himself?
