Renzi Scroll, Section 218: The Substance of Zi Yingming
. ,
Lu Song nodded, "I have no intention of interfering in your father's military affairs. It's just a friendly reminder. I think your father must be aware of it."
Feng Ziying slightly raised her hands to express her gratitude: "If you have more reminders from adults, I will definitely convey them to my father."
"Getting back to the subject, Ziying, I'm afraid you have heard about the situation inside and outside the palace to some extent in Shuntian Mansion. Although the emperor's health has improved, he has never regained consciousness. The judgment of the imperial doctor is also inconsistent. The cabinet has established a joint supervision of the country by the left and right.
Governance, but judging from the current situation, when it comes to governance, I’m afraid”
Lu Song didn't say any more and just shook his head.
Government management? What kind of government? King Shou and King Lu, one is frivolous, arrogant, uneducated, and the other is young and ignorant, weak and timid. Behind them, Xu Junru and Mei Yuexi are the real operators, but the two have been living for a long time.
Housewives in the palace, who see small profits and forget the great righteousness, have a shallow vision. How can such people talk about managing politics?
Feng Ziying couldn't comment on this either. As Emperor Yonglong fell unconscious, the pillar of imperial power quickly collapsed.
No matter whether King Shou or King Lu, they are not ready to take on this responsibility at all. They are focused on the brothers who may threaten their future and their succession, and only think about how to eliminate the threats and stay on the throne.
I have been in that position, but I have never thought about what kind of abilities and responsibilities I need to bear to sit in that position.
For them, maybe they just can't solve the problem, so it's enough to get rid of the people who may be able to do something. No matter who is better than me, but as long as they can't sit in that position, then what's left in the end
Only I can sit down.
"Master Lu, the emperor's failure to wake up has given everyone unlimited possibilities for daydreams. All the concubines in the palace are not fuel-efficient lamps. Naturally, they cannot give in to each other for the future of their own prince. Such disputes are inevitable." Feng Ziying said calmly.
Authentic: "These words should not be spoken by a foreign minister like me, but in the position of Shuntian Prime Minister, it is inevitable to come into contact with some people who want to cause trouble, so I have to say that no matter what the current struggle in the palace
, I think it is not appropriate for anyone to get involved in government affairs, and all the ministers in the cabinet can clearly see the whole reason, so there is no need for Mr. Lu to worry about this."
Lu Song's little eyes narrowed slightly.
He did not expect that Feng Ziying would actually say such a thing. The implication was that the people in the palace would be tormented, but they could only be limited to the palace and could not be involved in government affairs. They could even directly involve the people including King Shou and King Lu.
Everyone is isolated from government affairs, so what kind of country and government should this supervising country supervise and manage?
Feng Ziying noticed the change in Lu Song's eyes, but remained the same: "Master Lu, do you think my words are a bit excessive? Or do you think the establishment of a supervisory country is meaningless?"
Lu Song smiled softly, "Ziying must have some advice."
"The establishment of the Supervisory State is actually just a means to balance the internal and external affairs. In essence, neither King Shou nor King Lu has the ability to supervise the country and manage its affairs. Mr. Lu has no objection to this, right?" Feng Ziying asked rhetorically.
Lu Song remained silent.
"Why it was established? It's because it's uncertain whether the emperor can wake up, and the royal family is in chaos. If such an option is not given in time, it may be used by Prince Yoshitaka, in case he declares that he wants to supervise the country's governance.
What? In fact, he has already done it, but he was flatly rejected by Ye Gong at that time." Feng Ziying said calmly: "So I gave a response to reject Prince Yi Zhong's idea of causing trouble in the capital and forced him to leave the capital. As for the
In the future, if King Shou and King Lu can really show their ability to manage politics, they may not be able to take advantage of the situation in the future, but now, I don't seem to see it."
Lu Song sighed and still didn't speak.
"Now that the war is imminent, everyone knows that if Shandong cannot be captured by the middle of next year, the imperial court will be in dire straits." Feng Ziying said without hesitation, "The effects of the severe drought in the north will slowly become apparent, and now they are just beginning to show up.
By the end of spring, which was the most difficult time, the imperial court was unable to solve the problem of filling the stomachs of the victims in Shanxi and Shaanxi. Those victims who had nowhere to go could only take desperate risks. This situation also existed in some state capitals in Henan, Beizhi, and Shandong.
It's just that the officials below are suppressing the report for their own sake. The court can't take care of it now. But to solve this risk, water transportation must be restored. Jiangnan and Huguang must transport grain to the north in the next autumn. This cannot be done.
, the world will be in chaos. The little food transported by sea alone can only sustain the needs of the capital and the army, and other disaster-stricken places will have to seek their own blessings!"
Lu Song had to admit that what Feng Ziying said was true. In fact, he originally wanted to learn about some of Feng Ziying's arrangements in Yuguan, Dagu and Dinggu, but he took the initiative to say that the seaborne grain storage was not enough to satisfy the needs of the capital.
It is very difficult to meet the needs of the people and the army, let alone other places. It is impossible for the imperial court to ignore the capital and the army and solve the needs of the victims in other places. It is not that it does not want to, but that it cannot be done. Without the support of water transportation, everything is illusory.
Maritime transportation may have a bright future, but it is still far from being able to shoulder this burden.
In fact, Feng Ziying had seen this a long time ago and started to do this, encouraging merchants from Shanxi and Shaanxi to cooperate with merchants from Jiangnan. However, this requires a process, which does not take three to five years or even ten or eight years.
, it is difficult to truly replace water transportation.
Lu Song admired Feng Ziying's foresight very much. Without Feng Ziying's advance planning, the price of grain in Gyeonggi Province would have skyrocketed. It was all due to the Ministry of Household Affairs' announcement to import grain from Dinggu, Dagu and Yongping Prefecture.
Only then did they manage to suppress the fierce rise in food prices and stabilize the situation in Gyeonggi. Otherwise, the situation in Gyeonggi would have deteriorated long ago, not to mention that there are still so many refugees coming.
Based on this, Lu Song felt that even if Feng Ziying made any request as long as it did not violate his principles as a human being, he would agree to it. As for who he wanted to take to the imperial prison to visit, it was a trivial matter that was not worth mentioning.
It's Feng Ziying who wants to be released on bail. As long as it's not Jia She, Jia Baoyu, Jia Rong and other important people who attract too much attention, he can turn a blind eye.
"Ziying, what you mean is that the palace allows them to do whatever they want, as long as it doesn't affect the court situation, it doesn't matter." Lu Song laughed, "But it's unavoidable to do so."
"Master Lu, if you don't let them bother, they will focus on court affairs, and even have some unrealistic ideas, and want to take advantage of the court situation to cause trouble. That is the real hidden danger, so let them go.
"Long Jinwei has a good grasp of the scale and can even guide it. It has nothing to do with the overall situation. As long as Shandong is won and the general trend is determined, the rest will be of no concern." Feng Ziying said easily.
"Ziying, you look very confident in the situation of the imperial court." Lu Song asked with a smile.
"Master Lu, I actually think that the saying "Hugh together with the country" can be applied to those of us scholars and martial artists from the north. I don't think the Nanjing Puppet Dynasty really won. We can be better than now, so we will be firm and unyielding.
We will win this battle with our support." Feng Ziying said categorically, which was also a statement to everyone represented by Lu Song.
Lu Song was satisfied and nodded: "Ziying, you have such momentum and confidence, then I will feel at ease. I know how to deal with the affairs in the palace. Ziying might as well go and visit the ministers in the cabinet."
, sit down and talk,”
Feng Ziying understood: "I understand."
"Well, Concubine Jia in the palace has been released from confinement. I also told Concubine Xu that it should not be expanded or delayed. She is a smart person and understands what I mean." Lu Song said calmly: "In addition, if Ziying still
If you have any requirements, you can just tell Zhang Jin directly."
Feng Ziying was convinced that with this sentence, the room for maneuver would be much larger. Zhang Jin would definitely report to Lu Song, but as long as Lu Song did not object, he could do a lot of things.
Feng Ziying was in a good mood when she returned home. When she heard that Hongyu was back, she immediately understood that Wang Xifeng was probably pregnant.
Although she is not the first child born into this world, no man can restrain his covetous desire for Wang Xifeng, the most alluring woman in the Dream of Red Mansions book in the past. It is Feng Ziying’s turn.
Although he is only twenty years old, he was already a middle-aged man in his previous life. Naturally, he is not exempt from the secular world. Therefore, when he has the opportunity and fulfills a forbidden wish, how can he endure it?
Seeing Wang Xifeng's pregnant prime minister Feng Ziying gave birth to an indescribable sense of satisfaction. Now that things have come together, Wang Xifeng finally gave birth to her child, and this feeling is even more memorable.
The second grandma, Sister Feng, Feng Lazi, and Feng Yatou, this strong woman who was so arrogant and powerful in the Rongguo Mansion, finally crawled under her and willingly gave birth to children for her. This kind of psychological comfort and sense of accomplishment
, the sense of satisfaction is something that outsiders can never imagine and experience, even people of this era can hardly imagine.
However, in front of Yuanyang, Jin Chuaner and Qingwen, Feng Ziying could only suppress her inner thoughts. On the surface, she still pretended to be indifferent, pretending to care about Hongyu, and said comfortingly.
Lin Zhixiao and his wife should not have any big problems, and they will definitely be released in the future.
This kind of performance can be concealed from other people, but it is difficult to escape Yuanyang's wonderful eyes. However, Yuanyang is also well-informed and interesting, so naturally he will not expose these things. He just thinks that this man's acting is quite similar.
Considering the bad relationship between Wang Xifeng and this man, Yuanyang could only sigh in secret.
After a lot of excitement, Feng Ziying left first, leaving Hongyu, Jinchuaner, Yuanyang and others behind. Everything seemed so normal.
